I don't know whether to be more turned off by the seller's greed or the thought that there might actually be someone out there who will buy this. Oy!

It says not complete???? really???? I cannot believe the person went to the trouble to shoot four photos and the effort it took to list it. Even my trash man would not want to take it. I have saved his post just to see if anyone really buys it. If they do I have a ton of boxes of kits that I built that has way more left over stuff then he has. Maybe they will want all mine as well.

Well. I do collect vintage toys as a side hobby. I have bought boxes to "complete" a toy. They are more desirable and worth sometimes double in the box. My tastes tend to go towards spcae toys of the 60's, preferabley anything from Mattel's Major Matt Mason line or the Colorform Aliens line.

I had the Major Matt Mason set, plus a lot of extras, the green headed alien guy looks like the news anchor on Futurama!

There was a case on Judge Judy where seller was sued because she advertised a cell phone and sent a picture of the cell phone. She claimed only the picture of the cell was on sale and not the actual cell phone...LOL!

I think the hypodermic needle_looking_whatever that thing is has to be worth something close to 40 bucks.....right? Throw in a spoon and it will turn into an all-out bidding war.

OK, I took the bait.....look what else this cat is selling:

This may prove to be a hint here.....3 wheels for a 4 wheel cart.


Gotta get ya one of these:


Or maybe:


OK Enough fun from here.....I am signing off....Peace_Out.
